Hi Guys Just got back from 6 days of Muskie fishing . We fished Balsam , Sturgeon and Pigeon . Tough week weather wise high winds every day around 10 mph with gust some days up to 18 mph . I had a heart attack Sept 8 trouble with a old stent from 2008 it was 80% blocked so they put a new one in. My heart doc wasn't going to let me come but I talked him into it . I fished with my son and one of my grandsons came along he is 27 first trip to Canada he caught his first Muskie 34 1/2" on Pigeon . For the week we boated 9 and saw another 22 from follows and hits we only count hits if we see the Muskie hit it . 5 of the follows were from nice fish in the 40" class . My son caught a 43" er on Pigeon the last day for big fish of the week cost me $10 . We fished with 5 of my Canadian friends on Saturday we call it a Can-Am it was on Sturgeon who ever is behind at lunch time picks up the tab they kicked our butts I had to buy . We boated 5 Muskies saw 7 others on Saturday biggest was a 42" er by Kitch he used to be my Canadian buddy . With the wind we couldn't fish a lot of our favorite spots . The surface temp dropped 8 degrees a couple days we had 63 next day 55 . Still had a great time next year the Canadians are buying lunch .
Hey Hank, good to hear you are doing well and back in the boat. I didn't make it to Pigeon this year but landed up fishing Lake of the Woods with friends and family. However, looking forward to making my way to the Kawartha Lakes this coming summer and or fall.
